This week we explore why these collapsed stellar remnants are far more than just deep-space anomalies—they are actually some of the most powerful scientific instruments available to us.

Today, we're answering a question from listener Tim Smith, who asks: Why does anything exist?

How do you capture a full-color image when your recording medium can only see in black and white?

As private companies launch massive new fleets into orbit, we have to face a harsh reality: Space up there is not unlimited.

We talk a lot on this show about stars. But where do they actually come from? Host Patrick McNameeKing put the question to Jon Gianforte, an astronomer at the University of New Hampshire.

For this week’s Cosmically Curious, we check in with Nicole Gugliucci from Saint Anselm College to talk about how modern physicists tackle the ultimate origin story.

Construction is currently underway in South Africa and Australia for the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), a massive radio telescope poised to revolutionize our understanding of the cosmos. Its primary target? Neutral hydrogen (H1).

Physics professor Nicole Gugliucci explains the science of Star Trek’s warp drive, the Alcubierre concept, and why we're still far off from zipping through space.

Have you ever wondered how satellites stay on course when they are millions of miles from Earth? Recently, a listener named Don reached out to us with that exact question.

Whether you’re a budding scientist or just someone who loves a starry night, the Starlight Challenge is bringing the wonders of the cosmos to backyards across New Hampshire.
